  • the image generation control unit 303 generates an image such as a barcode, a two-dimensional code, or a QR code, and executes control for displaying the generated image on the display unit 204.
  • the image generation control unit 303 generates code information including information such as a public key used to execute communication parameter sharing processing and the identifier of a communication apparatus.
  • code information may be displayed in a communication apparatus without a screen display. This makes it possible to execute processing according to the present embodiment even if a communication apparatus does not include the display unit 204.
  • the service control unit 304 controls a service in an application layer.
  • An "application layer” herein refers to a service providing layer in an upper layer such as a fifth layer or an upper layer in an OSI reference model.

  • the station function control unit 307 provides an STA function for operating as a station (STA) in an infrastructure mode of IEEE 802.11 standard series. When the station function control unit 307 operates as an STA, the station function control unit 307 executes authentication/encryption processing, and the like. Also, the access point function control unit 308 provides an AP function for operating as an access point (AP) in an infrastructure mode of IEEE 802.11 standard series. The access point function control unit 308 forms a wireless network, and performs authentication/encryption processing on the STA and manages the STA.

  • the communication apparatus is the access point 101
  • the communication apparatus does not necessarily have the image reading control unit 302 and the like.
  • the image generation control unit 303 may be omitted.
  • the responder apparatus then checks the role of the responder apparatus (the configurator or the enrollee) in the communication parameter providing processing determined in step S402 (step S405). If it is determined that the responder apparatus is operating as the configurator, the responder apparatus displays a user interface (UI) for checking the settings (step S406).
  • UI user interface
  • FIG 6 An example of this UI is shown in FIG 6 .
  • the responder apparatus presents the device name of the initiator apparatus to the initiator apparatus, and enters a state in which a user input regarding whether or not the execution of the communication parameter setting processing with this initiator apparatus is permitted can be accepted.
  • the responder apparatus determines which option is selected from these options by the user (step S407). If the responder apparatus has determined that "NO" was selected in step S407, the responder apparatus transmits, to the initiator apparatus, an error response as a DPP authentication response packet (step S417), and ends processing. If the responder apparatus has determined that "OK” was selected in step S407, the responder apparatus displays a UI for allowing the user to input information regarding the initiator apparatus, which is the partner apparatus for the communication parameter setting processing, and enters a user input accepting state (step S408). An example of a UI displayed in step S408 is shown in FIG 7 .
  • FIG 10 shows an example of the flow of processing in the case where mutual authentication is performed. Note that, although the processing example shown in FIG 10 shows a processing example in a case where the enrollee is the initiator, even if the configurator is the initiator, similar processing may be executed.
  • the responder apparatus first, the responder apparatus also displays a QR code, and the initiator apparatus also captures the QR code displayed on the responder apparatus.
  • the initiator apparatus transmits a DPP authentication request packet to the responder apparatus, triggered by this QR code being captured.
  • the responder apparatus displays the UI screen as shown in FIG 6 .
  • the display of the UI screen is not necessarily used.
  • information regarding the initiator apparatus may be presented using sounds, and the above-described "OK” and “NO” selections may be accepted using a key, a physical button, or the like provided in the responder apparatus. That is, an optional information presenting method and operation accepting method that allow the user to check the partner apparatus and determine whether or not communication parameter setting processing can be executed may be used.
  • the present invention is not limited thereto.
  • wireless communication such as Near Field Communication (NFC) or Bluetooth (registered trademark) may be used, instead of capturing a QR code (registered trademark).
  • wireless communication such as IEEE 802.11ad or TransferJet (registered trademark) may be used.
  • information that can be read by a user may be used, instead of code information such as a QR code.
  • a configuration may be adopted in which predetermined character strings are displayed, the user inputs these character strings after an application is activated, and thus information that is similar to information obtained by capturing a QR code described above is obtained.
